Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé servant à fabriquer un composant de mémoire magnétique. Dans un mode de réalisation, on crée une première pluralité de lignes conductrices au-dessus d'un substrat de semi-conducteur. On crée une pluralité de lignes en matériau magnétique au-dessus des lignes correspondantes de la première pluralité de lignes conductrices et on crée une deuxième pluralité de lignes conductrices au-dessus du substrat de semi-conducteur. La deuxième pluralité de lignes conductrices croise les premières lignes conductrices et les lignes en matériau magnétique. On peut utiliser ces deuxièmes lignes en tant que masque pendant qu'on exécute la configuration des lignes en matériau magnétique.
